Cacoo's 16th Birthday

We raced around Sunday morning cleaning up so we could get home from Big Canoe in time for Cacoo's 16th birthday party. It was a small affair - nothing like My Sweet 16 on MTV that I get sucked into watching whenever I flip through and see that it's on! Anyway, she just invited some girlfriends over to swim and cookout. There wasn't much swimming, but there was plenty of talking and visiting, eating and opening of gifts. It was fun to be able to be here to celebrate with her.

McIver loves when Cacoo or Fielding throw him up in the air in the pool.

Olivia especially likes when Fielding throws her up b/c she goes so much higher.

We are all loving the new pool. It's not all the way finished yet (the gazebo is still being put together), but the hottub and waterfall are great fun (especially when 3 water guns are in action in and around the pool - the hot tub makes a great hiding spot.
